Update on the pennywhistle player at the train station. He's famous now - being discussed on Reddit. Apparently he was playing Jingle Bells well into February. There is also a lively debate as to whether his other tune is supposed to be Found A Peanut or Darling Clementine 😄

Eclectico Records Eclectico Records is St Kilda's only independent record store. We have over 10,000 unique titles in our store with 8500 items on our website. We stock mainly vinyl records but also keep other formats ...

Also went here in Melbourne. I'm not sure about 45s but it had a great selection of vinyl. It's located on a very interesting street with lots of cool shops and restaurants (especially bakeries 😋) eclecticorecords.com.au

In Auckland be sure to hit up Real Groovy. Huge store with vinyl from all over, plus books, DVDs, CDs, etc. I spent most of an afternoon in there and had a grand time.

Thoughts and prayers....

Hopefully they show up for it too!

Well, "Found A Peanut" does have an infinite number of verses....🥜🥜🥜🥜

The busker who plays a pennywhistle at my train station usually plays "Amazing Grace" over and over and over. Today they have broadened their repertoire, and are playing "Found A Peanut" over and over and over 😱
